Firstly, I know this is a sensitive topic and I do understand warnings or the display of helpful links/resources are important when dealing with certain topics. This isn’t about me mocking their existence by any means.
My point is that I’m noticing a trend in these warnings basically becoming spoilers, especially in episodic streaming.
I won’t name any examples, because spoilers, but big recent shows have done this and crashed the big emotional moments of their show, to me anyway.
I feel there has to be a better way than to put a warning for - what is clearly the big ‘oh I hope this doesn’t happen to them’ plot point of your series, at the beginning of an episode.
Maybe it can be an optional setting you can opt in or out of, in the streaming platforms themselves?
Unsure if anyone else has been finding this
